About Lodhi Garden
Lodhi Garden is a 90-acre heritage park located in
central Delhi, blending Mughal-era architecture with
lush greenery. Originally developed around the tombs
of 15th and 16th-century rulers from the Sayyid and
Lodhi dynasties, it showcases striking examples of
Indo-Islamic architecture like the tombs of Mohammed
Shah and Sikander Lodi.
The garden features well-maintained walking trails,
lotus ponds, expansive lawns, and over 100 species of
trees and plants. Visitors frequent it for morning walks,
photography, picnics, and cultural events, while its
peaceful environment also makes it a popular study
and relaxation spot.
Lodhi Garden is also a biodiversity hotspot, home to
more than 160 species of resident and migratory birds
such as barbets, parakeets, spotted owlets, and
hornbills. With its mix of water bodies, dense foliage,
and open spaces, it plays a vital ecological role in
sustaining urban birdlife in Delhi.
